A short trip to FRIM with my buddy Danny, Jarry, Dylan and Michelle.

One of my ex colleague Gladys are participating in a Christmas Caroling at 1Utama and i was super free that day. Therefore, i decided to drop by with my buddy Danny for some photoshoot.

Crowded, pack, more like a broadband fair to me. Have a great time with my usual gang Danny, Michelle and her husband. Nevertheless nice meeting up with Bro Ace (Ex Alpha) again....overall tired but learn a lot of new stuff especially on flash control. Models

Bukit Broga, or Broga Hill, is located near Semenyih, about 40 minutes away from Kuala Lumpur. Its real name is Bukit Lalang, refering to the thin and long species of local grass that grows abundantly on this hill. I heard a lot about it from my friend and finally decided to make a trip there for some landscape photography. I was join by my buddy danny and his wife patricia, Ryan and Chloe. Due to the trip is on saturday, we decided to go there early. We arrive at the foot of the hill around 5am in the morning and it is completely dark. The climb up to the hill took us 1 tiring hour and we reach at the top around 6am in the morning just in time to catch the sun rise. Upon reaching the top of the hill, Danny and I start to setup our camera gear and get trigger happy after that. Here are picture that i took that day.

Finally got myself a flash gun second hand from another alphanatic gun who jump ship to nikon. This flash gun is light weight, compact compare to Sony F58 flash gun and a lot cheaper. So that mean travel with it is much more easy. Beside that, it has HSS (high speed syn) function which allow photographer to use higher shutter speed (> 1/160) to shoot in bright light condition. It does has built in wireless function which is similar to F58 flash gun. But the downside of this flash gun is that the flash power is on at Guide number 42 and the bounce angle coverage is not wide compare to F58 flash gun. Unlike F58 flash gun, F42 didn't come with a bounce card. This flash gun definitely a good beginner or a secondary flash gun. Will get myself a F58 flash gun in the future. Sony F42 Flash gun information Dimensions (W x H x D): 75 x 123 x 100mm Weight: Approx. 340g Colour: Black Operating Temperature: +0 to +40°C Storage Temperature: -20 to +60°C Battery Power Requirements: AA Alkalin

I bought this lens from an former alpha user who jump ship to canon back in 2009. Back to this lens, it is light weight and compact which good for traveling. With aperture range 3.5-4.5, this is a very rare stuff for a normal zoom lens. Bokeh is nice and image quality comparable to Minolta 70-210 F4 aka beercan and it produce nice sharp image at F6.3-7.1. The downside is that it doesn't have a zoom lock and it prompt to gravity pull. Overall, this lens is very underrated compact zoom lens from Minolta and very happy that i got it. Info on the lens Product Code: 2588-100 Production Year: 1988 Max Aperture: 3.5-4.5 Min Aperture: 22-27 Focal Range: 70-210mm Element: 12 Blade: 9 Min Focus distance: 1100mm Filter Rotate when focusing: Yes Lens min length: 110mm Lens Max Length:170mm Filter Size: 55mm Weight: 420g Product review - Click Here

A drive up to genting using Ulu Yam with my usual touge gang.

This is my second night photo outing. I was joined by my buddy Danny and chua-san. Chua-san came straight from Seremban to join us. Respect to him for the effort but too bad he forgotten to recharge his battery. He only manage to take a few shoot and went back early. I manage to get a cheapo Digieye beginner tripod and most of the photo were shoot by using my kit len. We stay till 2am and had supper before head back home. Overall, it is a quite fun outing.... :)

MMC(Myvi Motorsport Club) TT Chapter 42 - Putrajaya photo outing. This is the first night photo outing that i had attend. I had borrow a minolta 50mm f1.7 and Sony F58 flash gun from Danny for this outing. Lesson learn during the outing - tripod is a must and slow shutter control. Here are some picture:
